Panasonic GD87

Recently, my phone was stolen but I managed to get a new one (this one) by claiming off my home insurance. It is the newer model of my stolen phone. I was expecting great things from my new phone, loads of extra features, an easier to use interface and text messaging that doesn't take you ages to write a simple text. Was I content with my new phone? Yes and no, read on. The Interface ------------- Well, there is a vast improvement on the graphical side of the interface compared to my old phone. Easy on the eye graphics such as 3D icons and better resolution gives a clearer screen and makes using your mobile so much more fun. But graphics aren't ...  Read the complete review

Because of my job I have been switching phones in a weekly basis and I have all the new models that come out or will come out in the market. Some phones made me smile, others made me laugh and a few made me fall in love. So when I saw the Panasonic GD 87 (also called GD88 in Asia) I was doubtful to review it.

It ...  Read the complete review

Being a techno-tart I always like to have the latest gadget / toy, and my mobile phone is no exception! Having owned my fair share of mobile phones, when I decided that I needed a new one it had to match up to the competition very well, and have features that weren't present on my existing mobile (a Sony Erricson T68i). I first saw the Panasonic GD87 when I went into my local Orange shop, something that I would not normally (I usually just get a new contract to save loads on the cost of the new phone). Immediate impressions where good. The looks of the phone are quite striking, a nice silver paint job, and a big chunky hinge that looks ...  Read the complete review
